Still own the Sawyers, but quit carrying it's weight and bulk years ago. If
I ever get bit, and I'm more than a day from an out to civilization, I'll just
look for the next place to camp for a few days, knowing it won't be fun but
that I'll probably live. If I'm within a day of an out, I may try to walk
out. Of course food and water figure into those decisions. Food's not too
important, I'd guess; your body can probably best fight the venom without being
distracted by trying to digest food. Water is far more important, of course.
